Carrot Ginger Tumeric Puree for babies and soup for the family. Suitable for babies 6m+.

A healthy bowl of puree for babies and soup for the family is so good for the body and soul! It’s a perfect dish for this cold and wet winter weather and warms you from the inside out!

I have served the soup with drizzles of cashew cream. YUM! It really kicked it up a notch! Recipe below.

The kids have been sick with tummy bug, cold and cough and Lilbro is still too young to take certain medicin. Whenever we have a cold in the house I always stock up on fresh ginger. Ginger-infused tea is a household favorite, and it’s my mother’s antidote of choice for battling cold and flu! Turmeric and ginger are two very powerful healers and together work wonders!

Health Benefits of Ginger

Ginger is an ancient wonder spice and has a long history of use for relieving digestive problems such as nausea, loss of appetite, motion sickness and pain.

Health Benefits of Tumeric

Tumeric is a powerful medicine that has long been used in the Chinese and Indian systems of medicine as an anti-inflammatory agent to treat a wide variety of conditions, including flatulence, jaundice, menstrual difficulties, bloody urine, hemorrhage, toothache, bruises, chest pain, and colic.

Set aside all the benefits, carrot, ginger and tumeric make such a delicious combination!

If you make it with less liquid then you can easily turn it into a yummy puree for your baby. I started giving spices to my boys at a very early age. It will help them to develop and expand their taste buds and also will be more likely to try new food when they get older.
